Summary: Dumb political statement masquerading as a thriller
Review: I am not a Catholic, but Russian Orthodox, but nevertheless I was upset after watching this movie. It contains anti-Catholic agenda, pretty blunt and offensive, which says more about minds of the creators of this film than about Catholic Church. This film can't hold a candle to genuine and much deeper "Exorcist", story about real possession and exorcism. Why to create mediocre film merely to make a political, anti-Catholic statement (not very convincing one either)? I still can't believe that the American director could shoot the movie so much resembling official Soviet Communist anti-religious propaganda.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GENIUS !
Review: Stigmata is a very dark movie, and as stigmatism is a real phenomenon it gives the film a different angle and more depth. The direction of the movie is top quality and the music and camera angles at certain junctures of the film really take you aback. I personally think that the alternate ending was a better ending to the film, but mabey I just like gore and death! One of the most impressive features of the film is when Frankie is having these stigmatic turns the camera keeps flicking between her and Jesus being crucified, this added an edge to the emotion of the whole event, for Frankie and for the audience. Buy this movie it is sheer class!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is one of thee best films that I have seen.
Review: I thought this movie was going to be scary thats why I wanted to see it because a lot of movies out there know are not scary. Well this movie was scary and I loved it it was much better then I thought it would be. This is defintly worth the three bucks that you pay to rent it. It was so good I want to buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Creepy, entertaining and original!
Review: Not only is the plot really intriguing, but everything else about Stigmata is great! Patricia Arquette does an unbelievable job as a rave-hopping 23 year old inflicted with the wounds of Christ. The look of the movie, the quick cuts, camera angles, and rainy atmosphere is awesome and sets the mood. I was in suspense the whole time, and although this film is rather bloody, it's definitley worth watching!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not what you think!
Review: I rented this movie expecting to see a 90's rip off of the exorcist. Boy, was I wrong! This movie has so much more content then the previews led you to believe.

There are strong religous influences and there is also a love story of sorts involved. Dont get me wrong, it is a scary movie, it scared the witts out of me! There are not a lot of gory scenes, but they will still give you the shivers and make the hair on the back of your neck stand up!

Definately, watch this movie! A must see!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well maybe the Vatican isn't so happy anymore
Review: This is a great movie. I saw it in the theatre and actually bought a DVD player so I could own the movie. It was truely mind intruiging. Patricia Arquette is great especially in some of the cut scenes only available on the DVD. This movie is not for the faint hearted but is great for the deeply religious folk and to the not-so.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great super natural mystery
Review: Some people have compared this film to the exorcist, I don't know why as it is totally the opposite, it is not a horror supernatural film ! Basically the plot of the film is that a woman Frankie(Patricia)who is not religous at all gets possesed by an unknown source and starts to get cuts all over her body, speak and write a language that hasn't been spoken for approx 1500 years! Father kearnan(gabriel burne) is then called to invesitigate the mystery. To tell you any more would spoil the movie. If you are religous, not religous, it doesn't matter you can each appreciate the film on different levels. Buy the DVD, superb sound and picture, special features include an alternate ending which was not screened in the cinema and deleted scenes. Good value also.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: See for yourself!
Review: I SAW "STIGMATA" UNWILLINGLY. MY FRIENDS DRUG ME KICKING AND SCREAMING TO THE THEATRE. BUT AFTER VIEWING IT, I REALLY LIKED IT. IT IS AN EXTREMELY SCARY MOVIE, BUT WITH MEANINGFUL SPIRITUAL UNDERTONES. DEFINATELY BUT IT. IT IS A MUST SEE FOR ALL HORROR FANS!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie
Review: This movie has such a good plot to it, it also has the best photography I have ever seen. Patricia Arquette is at her very best. This is a little like the exorcist but it is better. The scenes in this movie are unbelievable. I dont want to give away this movie but trust me it is worth seeing. It is all kind of things all mixed up in to one great movie. SEE IT!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply Thought Provoking
Review: I look at all of these reviews and i they all seem to say the same thing, "Something is missing." It then occured to me that what if that's what they wanted. The story reminds me of an Poe story. I for one enjoyed the movie. I told all my friends to go see it. It is very logical and i don't belive in "G"od but it makes me think.
